Character Development - Scott Reynolds


Our idea of Scott Reynolds was that he would be sweet, protective and caring but his schizophrenia lets the audience witness a different side of Scott. Although his intentions are dark we don't want to portray him too negatively as we want the audience to still like him when he has his realisation.

Therefore, when casting Scott we want someone who has perhaps, what can be described as a 'pretty boy' look about them having the blonde hair and blue eyes. This also creates perhaps an innocent look about him which makes it more so surprising when he does take his evil turn, although he could perhaps have a slight rugged look about him (stubble?) in order to portray he has a slight dark side and has a sexiness and masculinity about him.

We wanted a contrast in Scott's looks and Grants looks again because we wanted the audience to easily be able to tell them apart in the trailer and to also present the stereotype of a 'dark bad boy' (Grant) and a 'sweet good guy' (Scott). We have the idea of Scott perhaps wearing lighter colours compared to Grant, again to support the contrast in characters similar to the film spiderman 3 in how the two spiderman's are portrayed visually.
